Swept Away Thanksgiving SNOW 2024

Where do I begin. The house is gorgeous well maintained and while I never met them personally Janelle was an amazing host. Very quick to respond and very helpful with all our questions. Erie experienced some major snow fall and the plows couldn’t get to the streets. But Janelle’s husband plowed the street to get us out! If you need a home in Erie I would definitely book this home. And the views of the lake drinking coffee were so relaxing

Family Celebration with Scenic Views and Exceptional Hospitality

Our weekend stay at Swept Away in Erie to celebrate my mom's birthday exceeded all expectations. Janelle was an outstanding host, ensuring every need was met in the beautifully decorated and spotless home. The views were breathtaking from nearly every corner, both inside and out. We loved our experience so much that we wasted no time and booked another stay for next summer!

Family vacation

This home was spacious enough for the 9 of us and had the most breathtaking sunsets I’ve ever seen! We were close to the casino, zoo and beach which was very convenient for the family. Would definitely stay again!

A wonderful experience at Swept Away!

A wonderful weekend experience! There was great communication before check-in. There was lots of space in the house for our large family and there were beautiful views! The house had all the supplies we needed. The only thing we had difficulty with was the thermostat - we could not consistently get the house cool enough (for example, we woke up one morning and the thermostat temperature was set at 78 degrees.) Maybe this is programmed, but we often tried to turn down the thermostat to cool the house more. But this was a great house and we would definitely like to return again.

Beautiful Views

This house is just as advertised. The views of Lake Erie from any place in the house are beautiful. The host provides over and above what you could want and even allowed us an early entry. Close to anything you want to do. We have stayed in alot of vacation homes and this was by far the nicest.

Great House, Beautiful View

This house was perfect for our stay in Erie. Gathering for my parent's memorial service, we needed multiple houses in Erie to help accommodate our family and Janelle's properties were ideal. Not only was this house located with a beautiful view of Lake Erie, but it had an open floor plan that was perfect for our traveling guests. Janelle is a gracious host who always responded quickly to any questions or request. I highly recommend this property and will reach out to Janelle again the next time we visit the Erie area. Many thanks!

Best Girls Wine Weekend Away

Every year, my girlfiends and I book a Girls Weekend and this year Swept Away was our choice this year! We cannot say enough positives about this place. It is a stunning home with views that are priceless. The booking, check in and check out process was flawless. Everything in the home is immaculate and there wasn't a shortage of space for us all to feel comfortable. I don't have enough space for all of the positives for this home. Thank you for such an amazing weekend. We will be back!
